Days 1, 14 and 28
Change From Baseline to Day 28 in the Position-index as Determined by Choreomotography
Time Frame: Baseline (Day-1) to Day 28
Choreatic (involuntary) movements were assessed using Choreomotography by calculating a position-index and orientation-index. Patients were asked to grasp and lift a device equipped with an electromagnetic sensor, and were asked to hold the device as stable as possible. Three dimensional (3D) changes in position (x, y and z) and orientation (roll, pitch and yaw) were recorded and used to calculate a position-index and an orientation-index. This method provided an objective measure of the involuntary movements. 5 trials of 20 seconds duration were performed with each hand, and the start and end of each trial was signalled by a cueing tone. The mean changes from Baseline to Day 28 in the position-index of the right and left hands are presented as raw data. The statistical analyses present geometric least squares (GLS) mean ratios in the original units.

Grip forces and 3D position and orientation of the object were recorded. Mean isometric grip forces and grip force variability in the static phase (expressed as coefficient of variation = standard deviation/mean x 100 [GFV-C]) were calculated during a 15 second period. 5 trials of 20 seconds duration were performed with each hand. The mean changes from Baseline to Day 28 in the grip force variability of each hand are presented as raw data. The statistical analyses present GLS mean ratios in the original units.
